To complement its Megaflo brand, Baxi has launched a new range of direct and indirect hot water storage options. The new cylinders are said to provide a high performance and cost-effective option for heat-only and system heating set-ups.

Delivering up to 76 litres per minute of hot water at 3 bar pressure, the new cylinders provide the hot water performance without the need for additional shower pumps or tanks – even at low pressures.

The high-grade duplex stainless steel tank has a high corrosion resistance and strength-toweight ratio, while the insulated T and P valve and 50mm injected foam insulation offer great heat retention and energy efficiency. The direct and indirect models also feature an internal expansion with floating baffle, which provides neat and space-saving options for installers to offer customers and reduce overall installation time.

The indirect models also boast a high performance coil-in-coil heat exchanger, said to provide ‘exceptionally’ fast recovery times.

For peace of mind for installers and their customers, the range comes with a 25-year warranty on the inner tank and two-year warranty for all other components, subject to terms and conditions. All cylinders across the range are compatible with all system and heatonly boilers on the market, including those from Baxi’s latest 600 and 800 ranges.

New City Plumbing is now offering a series of tools developed by Vericon Systems that allow private and social landlords to remotely monitor and manage heating systems using real-time data.

The main product on offer is the Boiler Control Module (BCM), a telematics hardware device that can be connected to each boiler in a housing portfolio. The BCM collects data in real-time, monitoring the health of the heating system and providing information on system efficiency. It also detects fault codes and notifies housing providers, enabling them to send the appropriate engineer with the necessary parts for repairs.

In addition to the BCM, Vericon has developed the MultiDot, which measures temperature and
